Ok so I’ve been in this site for years and adding images has always been easy, but suddenly I can’t? I’m doing the correct [img][/img] thing with the link and the .png at the end of the image link, but it always comes out as a little blue question mark, not the image. I was doing the “draw the dragon above you” thing, and ended up having to just put a link to the image rather than the image itself. Is there some way to fix this? Example: [img]https://imgur.com/a/r1OCCPl.png[/img]

I attempted posting the image but it isn’t visible

@ClockwerkFortune

where are you hosting the image you want to link?

@ClockwerkFortune Whatever image you're trying to use you've got the incorrect URLs for. Go back to where you have the image and copy the image's url (depending on your browser this can be as simple as right-click on the image and select "copy image source" or more complex. Google your browser and "copy image url" for instructions.). Simply adding an image file extension does not always work. Get the actual image url since adding .png to the page url isn't always going to be accurate. In fact, when I searched for that thread where you posted the page link I got this as the image url: [code]https://i.imgur.com/5LhVdme.png[/code] That has nothing to do with whatever you posted above.

@Nightwind I’m on mobile rn, I have a computer I can try it on. I used imgur as a hosting site since I’ve been doing that for years, but I may have made a mistake so I’m going to look into it. Thank you for the help!

@ClockwerkFortune

Glad it worked for you! Very nice art!

For most mobile/touch devices you can tap and hold on the image and you'll get a menu that should offer some form of "copy image address" selection.

@Nightwind I’m very glad your advice worked because I have a ton planned that involves images! Thank you again! [emoji=coatl laughing size=1]
